The Bible is good for us in every way, but if you never read the Bible or study the Bible how can it impact or transform your life? It can’t!

The same goes for any form of learning, if you don’t study you don’t pass! It’s as simple as that. Check out all the amazing things the Bible has to offer. It teaches what is true, it reveals what is wrong in our lives, it corrects that wrong and teaches us to do what is right. The Word helps us to do what God wants us to do.

A Christian is a disciple of Jesus. The word disciple is derived from the word discipline. In order for an athlete to succeed they have to be disciplined and train hard. As Christians we too have to be disciplined and train hard to live God’s way and make our lives count eternally.

God loves it when we do the things we should do (like studying very hard), whether big or small, difficult or easy, spiritual or secular.

Q: What should a Christian do to live God’s way? Can you see how making an effort, even with your studies, pleases God?

Grace, leads us to be gracious to others even if and when they don’t deserve it. During times of stress, like exams, people can behave badly. Be an instrument of grace to others today. Remember God’s grace to you and do good in actions and words to those you may think don’t deserve it.

Prayer: ‘Jesus. Thank you for your grace. Help me to be quick to forgive and share grace as others need it. Make me a blessing during this exam time.

As you prepare for your exams, take some time to look to the Lord and pray for others who are also going through exams. Ask God to guide them, to give them peace, and to help them study without distraction. Pray for others the prayers that you would like prayed for you over this time.

Prayer: ‘Father, I pray for others writing exams. Help them to think clearly. May you work in their lives so that, no matter their situation, they can study in order to do the best they can over this exam period.
